Hello MBSE programmers !

I have a node that polls but on or during receiving a file it all stops
during his poll and mbse when he polls again report stale AKA addresses.

This (I assume) is causing a problem with tossing files and mail that come
in at any time afterwards i.e., no attempt to run mbfido to ti etc.

Can mbse check if a connection does the equivalent of timing out or no flow
after so many seconds and ends the poll drops the link / call within the 
mailer
..  This is using the internet as a connection.

Yes, a subsequent call does the same having reporting stale akas but as I have
a limit as to the number of connections at any one time due to slow upload
speed (20Mb) it can end up blocking the entire system.

This is not a issue within the BBS for BBS users as far as I know (I don't get
callers due to an issue with the password program (mbpasswd and possibly
mbuseradd) failing to create or update the password of a new user or changing
one as an existing user - it has been like that for a long time when used with
Linux distro Mageia (v5, 6, 7 & 8 - the latest).
